I wonder how many ended up with long COVID, and if the company will be paying out workers comp for disabling those workers with their negligence.
No explanation of what FLiRT stands for. A+ article s/
Because two of the three mutations in these variants are located at F456L and R346T. And they didn’t mention it because that information is going to mean nothing to the vast, vast majority of people on this planet.
To the curious what these mean: a phenylalanine(F) is changed to a leucine(L) and an arginine® is changed to a Threonine(T). These changes occur at the 456th and 346th amino acids in the protein (I’m assuming the “spike” protein). How these changes actually matter to viral infection and spread is mostly unknown but these variants are most prominent in people actually going to their doctor or the hospital (as no one else is likely to test anymore).
So named after mutated genes - thanks
We ran out of Greek letters, and now we’re onto words for human acts of courtship?
Maybe to increase awareness among Gen Z, we’ll call the next one the RiZZ variant!
Tap for spoiler
This is just a cheap joke about the name. It shouldn’t need to be said that COVID should be taken seriously. But words and acronyms can be fun sometimes.
Just wait for the FUcK variant. That one will really screw you.
If history is any indicator, I don’t think Ill even be able to catch the FUcK variant.
Damn, a self-burn.
